Steelers tailgaters are some of the most creative and loyal fans in the NFL. Check out some of the tailgaters from the Steelers vs Ravens game, November 18, 2012. Did you make our slideshow from Heinz Field?

The Steelers contend their lease requires the authority to pay about two-thirds of the $38 million the team expects it will cost to add the end zone seats and a new video scoreboard.

“The obligations are clear under the lease. That's why we started the lawsuit,” said Steelers attorney Kevin Lucas.

But the authority's attorney says that provision kicks in only if half of the NFL's stadiums have had similar expansions and at least 25 percent of the cost of those other expansions were funded with tax dollars. Authority attorney Walter DeForest says that hasn't happened.

“We will be strongly defending this case,” said DeForest.

The team thought the SEA could raise its share through a $1 ticket surcharge and an extra $2-$3 parking fee -- but Alco Parking Co., which operates the stadium lots, has balked at that.

SEA spokeswoman Mary Conturo says the agency continues to negotiate with the Steelers. But the team says it may need a court order to enforce the lease.

The 11-year-old stadium now has 65,050 seats.

“Being a Steeler fan, I would like there to be more seats so I can get there. I guess I would like to pay for it,” said William Richardson, of the North Side.

“Yeah, I think they should have more seats. If it's going to raise the ticket price a little bit, it's going to do that,” said Maria Carlini, of Franklin Park.

Steelers President Art Rooney II released this statement earlier in the month:

"We are extremely disappointed that the SEA has not given timely assurance of its intention to honor our Lease for our Heinz Field expansion. This state-of-the-art expansion assures that Heinz Field would remain the first class facility our fans expect and deserve. The SEA is our landlord and it is not holding up its end of the lease.

Since opening in 2001, Heinz Field has generated more than $100 million dollars in tax revenue for state and local governments. It is on track to more than pay for the public money that was invested in the project.

The Steelers have already advanced more than $6 million in improvements, design and planning costs to keep the current projects moving, and more than double that amount in ongoing repair and maintenance costs since Heinz Field first opened in 2001.

It is unfortunate that the SEA has chosen not to live up to its promises and obligations as landlord. At this point, we have been left with no alternative other than to go to court to enforce the terms of our lease."

Pittsburgh police say they used evidence lifted from Mocospace after the suspect uploaded acts to the site. The girl told police that he knew she was only 13 and that he would stalk and harass her, waiting for her to get off the school bus.
